The St. Francis Endowment Committee has developed a working relationship with theEpiscopal Church Foundation, an independent not-for-profit organization. Established more than 50 years ago, the foundation assists parishes, dioceses, and affiliated Episcopal entities in their efforts to encourage church giving. Through the ample resources of the foundation, as well as the efforts of our own Endowment Committee members and other parishioners, we are able to provide many documents and guidelines for planned giving. Some of these resources appear in the sidebar to the right of this page, or contact the Endowment Committee for more information. SFEC and ECF Relationship
